[Samba] Problem with tar commands in smbclient 3.0.23c

[Steven Whaley]

Since upgrading from CentOS 4.3 to CentOS 5 the smbclient tar commands
seem to be broken.  The version on 4.3 was 3.0.10 I believe, while on 5
it is 3.0.23c-2. 

Here's what happens.

Running the command:
$  /usr/bin/smbclient \\\\host.domain.com\\backup -A /tmp/ntcredentials
works fine.  It connects no problem.

But:
$  /usr/bin/smbclient \\\\host.domain.com\\backup -A /tmp/ntcredentials
-Tc /tmp/blah.tar
fails with the following error
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE

The debug output looks like this

[name at host tmp]$ /usr/bin/smbclient \\\\host.domain.com\\backup -d 3 -A
/tmp/ntcredentials -Tc /tmp/blah.tar

This is is breaking out backups, which worked fine on the older version
of smbclient without any special trickery.  Any help, anyone?
